According to CBS Sports, "Saturday's fight represents something far more important to the sport than any carnival sideshow can provide (no matter how entertaining or lucrative said fight turned out to be)". The eight year age gap has never been more telling, with boxing experts recently praising the young Mexican for improving massively in every one of his recent performances, while simultaneously noting the cracks appearing to show in Golovkin's energy and effectiveness. "This is very much boxing's Super Bowl and the best it can offer in terms of competition, 50/50 matchmaking and the potential for explosiveness". There's Gennady Golovkin, the nice guy outside the boxing ring, and then there's "GGG" the ferocious boxer inside the ring. Triple G is top of the rankings when it comes to jabs landed per round, averaging 12, which is over double the average across the professional ranks. "I want you to all enjoy it like I'm going to enjoy it". Facing Mayweather highlighted that Canelo struggles to land effectively against fast footed fighters who flit in and out of range, which Golovkin is certainly not.

A fighter should fight anyone and I think they would all be as hard a fight as each other but I'd probably rather fight "GGG" because I wouldn't have to go looking for him.

Styles really do make fights, and these are two fighters with explosive styles. He's in a great mood, I don't know if it is because the baby is here or that he finally has got the fight he has wanted.
